5. Helvetia Backyard Community Run

Join the Backyard Community Run, an intimate gathering limited to just 15 laps around a familiar track. This event offers runners the perfect opportunity to test their gear and nutrition under controlled conditions without the pressure of competition or time constraints. Entry is free for all participants who wish to explore their limits in this cozy setting.
The run takes place within a serene woodland area, offering a peaceful backdrop as you circle through lush greenery and cool forest air. Each lap provides runners with an ideal environment to refine pacing strategies and experiment with different hydration and fueling methods. After completing your 15 laps, the event concludes, but participants are welcome to continue their run on their own if they choose.
The woodland shelter serves as a central meeting point for those who want to socialize before or after the run, providing a comfortable spot to relax and share experiences with fellow runners. While access to this area is restricted once the official laps end, it remains open for casual use outside of event hours.
This community-focused event fosters camaraderie among participants as they come together to support each other's running journeys in an encouraging atmosphere.
